The Foxes' Forest - Old Ways [Official Video]

Показать описание

Old Ways is available everywhere now, and I'm so excited to share this music video with you. I so struggled to come up with a good concept for a video, but my wife Hannah came up with this gem of an idea. And when a perfectly foggy day came to us, we knew we had to get out and shoot it. I'm really proud of this song, and of this video, and I hope it encourages you the way it encourages me.

Another special thank you to Hannah for braving the cold and helping me film this. I couldn't have done any of it without you.

Like books, board games, and battlestar galactica?*
You might enjoy my other channel, where I share about the creative process and my other projects:

LYRICS:
Woke up on the wrong side of the bed again
I can't break these habits I've had since I was a kid
Oh don't look at me that way, I already feel condemned
I know you're disappointed, but right now I just need a friend

'Cause I can't shake my old ways
Been tryin' for almost two decades
Sometimes old scars just don't fade

I'm sorry for the way I let you down again
The ruts are deep along this road that I've been travelin'
I keep trying to change but I can't do it by myself
Please don't give up on me, I just need a little help

'Cause I can't shake my old ways
Been tryin' for almost two decades
Sometimes old scars just don't fade

And a part of me wants to give in
Be done with all of these problems
'Cause I don't see a way that I can win

But a part of me doesn't want to give up yet
When I hear You say that this is not the end
You know light always shines out of darkness

So I will face my old ways
Be the best person I have been in decades
'Cause today don't have to be like yesterday again, yesterday again

Woke up on the right side of the bed today
I still fight my demons, but You give me the strength
I still face the dark sometimes, and I still feel the shame
I'm so far from perfect, but I'm doing better for a change
I'm doing better for a change
I'm doing better for a change

Just discovered your music. What a fantastic song this is.

So many of us have had this experience of battling things that are holding us back from our highest expression. Things that consume us.

This song describes that experience perfectly.

You have a new fan.

I was actually surprised when I saw only 807 subscribers. I thought you had a million or something.

For real, that's pure talent there! I'm rooting for your success!

For Alex, the best employee Hugo's ever had. Thanks for making a lonely woman smile while you checked out my groceries.
